My travels can open treasure chests

Chapter 285 The Best Painter in the World
The books are out, he doesn't really care if the photos can be published in magazines, but the more important thing is to help.

Which photographer can refuse to take pictures of girls?

What's more, she is such a beautiful woman.

Maybe her current temperament is not even comparable to a professional model.

Going around from the side door to the front venue, Han Qi automatically took the role of photographer, and before he could react, he raised his camera and took pictures of the scene in front of him.

An open-air banquet hall.

This place is the most central garden of the manor. After entering from the front, go straight, and it is located in front of the villa of the owner of the manor.His midline is a piece of bluestone road, with neatly constructed lawns on both sides. Now there are many long tables on the lawn, with fruits, cakes, red wine, and snacks, everything you expect to find.

Near Han Qi, there is a classical wooden dome with the words 'Kangtao 1886' on it.

The banquet has not started yet, only some maids working in the manor are busy like worker ants, arranging the things needed for the banquet.

"(Italian)"

A voice came from behind, Han Qi turned his head, and Ronnie pulled Han Qi's arm and took him aside.

It was still the maid who spoke, probably because today was a special day, and they all wore black and white uniforms solemnly, with a kind of capable temperament.

Two men were pulling a small trailer with a wooden wine barrel on it.

Ronion said excitedly: "This should be red wine brewed many years ago. I heard that Kang Tao will open a special year of red wine for the guests at the banquet to taste on every important day, but I don't know what it is. One year, it’s 91 years.”

"Why does it have to be '91?"

"Of course it's because 91 is a good vintage. You're a silly question. Do you know why some Lafites are expensive and some are cheap?"

"I know the vintage, I think 82 is the best for any wine."

Ronnie laughed and said:

"You need to improve your knowledge of red wine. The 82-year-old Lafite has a unique flavor, but that doesn't mean that the 82-year-old Italy also has such a perfect light. At least here in Rome, the 91-year-old is the best."

After he finished speaking, he continued to look at the wine barrel with an inexplicable look.

Han Qi was also watching.

But what he looked at was different from Ronnie. Ronnie looked at the barrel, and Han Qi looked at the person pulling the barrel.

Maid.

It turned out that in rich people's homes, there were people wearing clothes like this. He thought he could only see maids in maid cafes.

"Ouch!"

Han Qi and Ronnie both exclaimed.

The two maids were not strong enough and almost failed to put the barrel on the table. Ronion was worried about the fate of the red wine, while Han Qi rushed up to help them.

"Let me come."

Han Qi spoke in English, I don't know if they could understand, and then he put his hand under the barrel and lifted the barrel up.

It is indeed a little heavy.

The maid on the left said, "Thank you, let's move together."

Han Qi was able to lift it up by himself, but he didn't try his best. Together, the three of them put the bucket firmly on the table.

In the distance, Ronion finally felt relieved.

Evelina walked up to Ronion, looked in the same direction as him, smiled, and said, "Look at Han Qi, he is the kind of guy girls like, he has a sweet mouth and a good personality, you have to Learn more from him."

"I have no shortage of people to like what I learn to do."

"But after you've spent all your money, how many friends do you have?"

When Han Qi came back, what he saw was Ronnie who was lost in thought.

"what happened?"

"It's nothing, let's go and see those sculptures, they all have history, I know you like history..."

Starting at nine o'clock in the morning, the number of people here gradually increased.

Those who can enter here are those who have an invitation letter, and Han Qi also borrowed Evelina's light, otherwise he can only be a citizen enjoying the fun with the people outside.

For Ronion, it's the same everywhere, the only difference is better red wine.

The barrel of red wine that Han Qi carried just now was not from 91, but from 99, but this is also very rare, and Ronnie drank it very happily.

Han Qi is also very happy, not because the taste of the red wine is so good, but that the year 99 is very special to him personally, because he was born in [-], and the red wine tasted today belongs to the same year, or even the same month .

In the middle of the banquet, Han Qi sat on a chair at the edge, with Ronion beside him.

"This is the summer of 99." Han Qi took a sip of wine, closed his eyes and thought about it.

Ronion also closed his eyes.

"Yes, this is Kang Tao."

Cantao, which is highly praised by Ronion, is indistinguishable from Lafite, Conti and other big-name red wines in terms of taste, but it is definitely a top-level red wine. It has very obvious cedar and roasted spice flavors. Intensely fruity with notes of blackberry and menthol on the finish.

The aftertaste is long.

What is the most important thing?

He is cheap.

Look at how much a bottle of Lafite costs, and how much does a bottle of Cantao cost.

Simply incomparable.

Ronion opened his eyes and bumped Han Qi with his arm.

"Hey, that's Sir Contao, the one surrounded by many people."

It should have come out of the villa, surrounded by many people, probably including secretaries and assistants, who were greeting friends at the banquet one by one, Han Qi looked at them leisurely, and then she saw Evelina .

Wori, I almost forgot the business.

Han Qi quickly put down his wine glass, rushed over with the camera, and stood by Evelina's side.

"I thought you forgot."

"How could it be?" Han Qi said.

Forget it or not, but you can't say that in your mouth.

Evelina laughed out loud. She saw Han Qi and Ronnie drinking in the distance just now, and also saw Han Qi rushing over in a panic... Actually, she doesn't need a photographer, she is not the protagonist today , red wine is.

The big deal is to find other photographers and ask for a few photos to post in magazines.

He asked Han Qi for help just because he wanted Han Qi to make more money.

A girl's mind is always delicate. From yesterday's chat, she knew that Han Qi's family is not rich, and she travels around the world through street singing. She should be short of money, so she gave it to Han Qi. such an opportunity.

Sir Contao was coming this way.

This is an old man in his 70s with gray hair, but he is very organized and energetic.

Most old people start to put on weight when they are 70 years old, and their backs become hunchbacked, but this old man does not. He still stands straight and walks without support.

"Hello, Ms. Leticia."

He and Evelina hugged gently, and Han Qi found a good angle to take two photos.

The sound caught Sir Kang Tao's gaze, and he subconsciously glanced at Han Qi.

There was nothing wrong with it. There were too many photographers at the banquet. After all, he invited a lot of Italian media today, and they all sent photographers.Usually one glance at Kang Tao will move towards the next person to chat with.

It's just that Han Qi's face is very recognizable among this group of Europeans.

He is the only Asian here.

The more Kang Tao looked at it, the more familiar it became.

He was sure that he had seen Han Qi somewhere, and he was deeply impressed.

He has always had such self-confidence. Memory is a talent he has been proud of for many years. This talent is often shown off by him just like he has 46 lovers in his life.

"you……"

He said to Han Qi with doubts on his face.

Everyone at the banquet was looking at Sir Kang Tao before, but now they all looked at Han Qi with a probing look.

what's the situation?
Han Qi was a little confused, blinked, and pointed at himself.

"I?"

"Yes, you... what's your name?"

"Han Qi, my name is Han Qi, sir."

Although surrounded by so many people, Han Qi is not stage fright at all, he has seen more people than this, so he will not shrink from the eyes of hundreds of people present, and introduces the old man in front of him openly Own.

"Yes, it's you, Han Qi!"

Sir Kang Tao suddenly realized, he remembered, and remembered where he had seen Han Qi.

It was a painting exhibition two months ago.

The art exhibition was held at the most famous Florence Art Center in Rome, and Sir Contao was invited to participate in that art exhibition.

He was very impressed by one of the paintings and was very eager to buy it, but later he learned that the painting was bought by a Norwegian for 200 million euros.At that time, he still felt that it was a pity, and he stood for a long time in front of introducing Han Qi's huge artistic photo.

His eyes grew brighter.

Sir Kang Tao has been regretting that he didn't know Han Qi earlier, and he didn't get Han Qi's painting earlier.

Unexpectedly, this person suddenly ran in front of him.

This is really...

It takes no effort to get it.

He suddenly laughed, stepped forward to greet Han Qi very happily, and then brought Han Qi under the dome with "Kang Tao 1886" under Evelina's inexplicable eyes.

"I would like to introduce to you the young man around me, one of the best painters in the world, the young Mr. Han Qi."

Some people who have seen Han Qi's paintings recalled it when they heard the name.

After all, it is an unforgettable and impressive painting.

The old man guessed from Han Qi's answer just now that he doesn't know English. This sentence was introduced in English. Of course, Han Qi didn't dare to just admit it, so he quickly said: "Sir Kang Tao values ​​me too much. I just walked on the road, good afternoon everyone..."

"You have proved yourself with two paintings, there is no need to be so humble. I know you Chinese people are always modest, but your skills are priceless, and your knowledge is the lamp of wisdom. In the world of painting, you should be It deserves the word great."

Han Qi is really blushing now.

If there were a group of ordinary people off the court, even if the old man in front of him said that Han Qi was the reincarnation of God, Han Qi would definitely accept it without changing his face, and would treat it as a joke anyway.

But Han Qi knew that this was not a joke, and the group of people in front of him were not ordinary people.

Now everyone at the banquet is whispering, asking about the news and deeds of this young man from the people around him who know Han Qi. Evelina is the most active one among them, and the goddess figure that was finally maintained has collapsed a little bit.

After a while, when she inquired about the price of a painting by Han Qi, she blushed slightly and gritted her teeth.

Han Qi, so you lied to me!
Fortunately, I still want to help you and give you a chance to be published in our magazine, but I didn't expect that you are a big shot who can make our magazine beg you to come and publish an article.

I'll settle accounts with you when you come back.

Sir Kang Tao originally wanted to ask Han Qi if he had any other works for him to appreciate, but now is really not a good time, he has other things to announce at this banquet, which is why he invited so many media today reason.

Walking down the stage from the back, Jazz said to Han Qi: "I really didn't expect you to come to my banquet, it's really great, now you go to eat something and drink some wine, we'll talk later. "

"I don't think you should love me so much. I'm just a traveler, but I just came here today."

"Haha, this is our fate, isn't it?"

He said with a smile.

Han Qi walked towards his original position, and everyone around him came to say hello. It didn't take long for Han Qi to receive a large stack of business cards. He used to take photos of others by himself, but now those photographers also started pressing Han Qi. The shutter is on.

Han Qi, who was flustered, suddenly found that the clouds were covering him, so he looked up at the sky.

It's cloudless, which is pretty good.

But when I looked forward, I noticed Evelina's face...

"Listen to my explanation, I didn't deliberately hide it."

"Okay, great painter! Thanks to me, I still want to help you. You must be laughing at me in your heart, right?"

"How come, I am very grateful to you."

Han Qi expressed his gratitude to her from the bottom of his heart. Being a painter is just one of his hobbies, and photography is the same. Han Qi is too happy to be featured in a magazine as a photographer. How could he laugh at you?
Ronion drank a lot of red wine by himself, and now he was a little drunk, and muttered in a low voice.

"I knew you were not an ordinary person, boy... hiccup..."

Not long after, Jazz walked towards the small table again.

The entire banquet hall fell silent, ready to hear what Jazz would announce.

If it's just an ordinary banquet, just invite some people to have a banquet in the villa. There is no need to call so many media, people are invited from all aspects of life and fashion.

"It has been 1886 years since our Kangtao family took over the winery in 135, but our family's history of making red wine far exceeds this number... Our family has witnessed the rise and fall of red wine history and survived several times. The financial crisis has finally persisted until now.”

"But today, I need to inform you of some good news."

Sir Kangtao looked at the faces of all the people in the banquet, and said word by word: "It has been more than 100 years, and we finally overthrew Obiang among the top ten wineries this year. That is to say, from now on, Kangtao will It is also one of the top ten wineries in the world.”

Ronion was so drunk that he was about to fall asleep, and suddenly his eyes widened.

The media at the scene were also shocked.

The Italians are not inferior to the French in their love for red wine, but the best wineries in the world are all French, which is a big pain point in their hearts.

Is Kang Tao also in this position now?
The top ten wineries are evaluated based on various data of the year, such as transaction volume, wine evaluation scores, price growth, property value and so on.

Once on this ranking, it is very difficult to fall back.

Suddenly there was warm applause at the scene.

Han Qi, a Chinese person, doesn't understand their feelings, but he can feel the feelings of everyone around him, so he also applauds and shouts.

Others were shouting for their motherland, but Han Qi thought while applauding...

Do you want to ship a batch home and store them for appreciation?
